Just curious :lol:
My favorites are chai, raspberry, and orange.
-
Mine are , Bluberry, Cinnamon and Peppermint. I would of picked cranberry but I have that flavor a little too much for the past few months.
-
I also really like oolong, though it's not on the list. :)
-
Ummm... that is a hard one to answer. I have a few favourites now, and then a bunch of others I like, depending on what I feel like.
Main types would be Orange Pekoe, fruity teas, and Rooibos teas.
-
I usually drink a blend of raspberry and lemongrass. I also like peppermint & licorice root tea, and white tea with strawberry leaves :)
-
Where is the option for "I LOVE TEA"! Only thing I don't like is oolong...
-
I almost always drink peppermint or "Moroccan Mint" tea. :) I'll drink plain green tea if I'm sick and don't want to taste flavors, or if it's all that's available. I also sometimes drink spearmint tea and other similar variations. I never drink black tea, though. :P And I'm allergic to chamomile, so that's out for me. :(
-
My favorite at the moment is ginger tumeric.
-
Earl grey. If any.
-
Twinings make a very nice cherry and cinnamon tea that I'm very fond of. I also enjoy cinnamon in other teas, such as Christmas teas (yes, also after Christmas). Other favourites of mine are fennel, nettle (sometimes combined), orange and blackcurrant.
-
I like my tea plain and simple, so any green tea is my favorite. Herbal teas only when I am sick, or before going to bed.
-
Lapsang souchong all the way! :frolic:
-
I like Lemon & Orange & Mint :)
-
Chamomile. Always chamomile.
-
I picked Pomegranate, Blueberry and Chai. I also love Earl Grey and Orange Pekoe. Pumpkin Chai and Vanilla Chai are both lovely. The only tea I really dislike is chamomile.
-
I actually dislike pretty much all the teas listed and I drink tea all the time. Haha.
I generally just like a regular black Ceylon tea, or English breakfast. I love Daintree tea, so good. Chinese teas like pu'er and oolong and jasmine are lovely from time to time, but I can't stand herbal or flavoured teas. Of the ones listed I can tolerate earl grey.
-
Gen-matcha "toasted rice" green tea, it's so good!
~For your health!
-
Is there an ALL button!? :blush:
I. Drink. Tea. Religiously.
I literally have tea with EVERY meal! I love it! I perfer it a thousand times over coffee! Tea is also crazy healthy for ya! Right now I have this crisp sweet tea with raspberry with some steamed jasmine rice and its so good together! I love pretty much any kind of tea. I really love anything berry, pumpkin spice, mangosteen, black and green tea, glabosa flower tea, and for those cozy days- chair latte in warm soy milk.
My favorite ever? Green Tea matcha. It takes forever to make IF you want to make it correctly in the authentic Japanese way! I love everything match a flavored. I have right now in my pantry/fridge green tea match a wafers from Japan, like 3 different containers filled with matcha, matcha Kit Kats, and 2 different brands of Japanese green tea match a ice cream. Thank goodness for Asia marts allll over my area!
I also love to use tea as medicine in a way! Ginger tea for upset stomaches, licorice root+cherry bark for sore throats, lemongrass+mint+valarian root with other plants in it for sinus relief. Really any hot tea feels good when I'm sick!
My coworker is an herbologist and actually makes her own home made Kombucha tea at home and brings it in! She has all these weird fungus bacteria cultures at home growing in mason jars! XD Its absolutely delicious! Imagine fermented tea, slightly fizzy! Its so good!
:coffee:
EDIT: I just made some matcha after this thread, and stained my countertop green in the process! xD Pretty much you get some fine matcha powder and you use a fine mesh strainer to strain it again into a small bowl, then add boiling water and whisk then pour it into a cup. If its not frothy, its not done right! Mmmmm and green tea Kit Kats xD

Im surprised you don't have the basics listed. Black, white, green....
I have a few favourites but they are much more complex then whats on that list. Ones an apricot-peach black tea but I usually go for flavoured greens :)
ETA: We actually have that exact same tea that a friend brought over from Japan >>
I like baking with it :)
-
There are that many kinds of tea?
I just remember trying whatever standard tea you find, and not really liking it, and I haven't had anything tea since.
-
Lala that looks so yummy!!!!
-
My everyday tea is lemon. Besides that I like forestfruit (raspberry, blueberry, blackberry), and a lovley cherry and gingermix our local teahouse sells. Chamomilltea during the evenings and a bunch of others if the above is not available.
-
LOL There are more you can ever imagine ....

normal clippa tea ! mmmmmmmmmmm oh and a biscuit to dunk :D
-
chai mmmmmm
-
We got a Keurig as a housewarming gift last year and, no lie, my husband and I use it every single day. I've gotten way too many different types of tea because of it, plus I have lots and lots of loose-leaf flavors... it's hard for me to pick a favorite!
I'd say my go to is just regular black tea, but anything strawberry or vanilla flavored is fair game. Chai is good too! Really anything fruity is fine with me, but I love all types. I mostly like different flavors in one tea though, not just one flavor.
Don't even get me started on some of the wonderful fandom blends from Adagio Teas... :dribble:
-
Orange, and peppermint are my favorites when I'm in the mood for tea. :). But it's mostly sugar with tea added :lol:
-
Earl Grey is my fave, but it's not an herbal tea.
I picked peppermint, it's nice for stomach issues.
-
I love tea!! almost all kinds and I'm up for trying new herbal blends too - there has to be way more types than even I have tried :P :lovey: :dribble:
I cant say I dislike any of the ones listed ..well except maybe chamomile - good effects, yucky taste, and if peppermint tea isn't strong enough it reminds me of ...chewing gum you've been chewing til there is almost no taste left - again yucky ! :P the others..well what I like best depends on how I'm feeling that day
The ones I chose as my faves today are Peach, Lemon, and Ginger :heart:
-
I'm rather frustrated today. I just found out that my favorite tea, Tim Hortons Pomegranate White, is being discontinued. *sigh* So I'm going to need to start looking for a new favorite. It's not the only tea I drink, but it is my "go to" tea so this is really annoying. :(
-
You didn't put "Yuck!" on the list. XD

Aww! You know, my cats had a super favorite cat treat that they totally loved, and suddenly the company discontinued it. I was pretty bummed! I went onto Amazon.com and found it was for sale in bulk from some second party sellers, and I bought a ton of it. XD I still have quite a large stock of it sitting in my closet!

I never drink... tea.
-
I have maybe 50 types of tea in my collection. Kinda hard to choose just one. I went with the most prevalent flavors in my collection; caramel, peach, and vanilla.
-
I have a favorite blend of Jasmine and Peach, whenever I visit my mom I always pick that one. :)
-

I totally did the same thing with Pit'r pats.
As for tea, I like cherry best, Chai is awesome too... roughly any fruity sugary milk tea.
-
I'm a Earl Grey and Chai person, have stashes of it. :lovey:
-
I have many favorites when it comes to tea.....
Chai, Peach, Lemon, Vanilla, Pumpkin, and Green teas. Bigalow and Celestial Seasons has the best teas in my opinion. I also don't mind Yugi teas either, especially if your sick, they work really well!!!!
-
Earl grey, lemon and peppermint. :o)
-
Jasmin, Rose and Peach ! But I love any tea, really.
Also, Matcha Green tea is heaven.
-
Blueberry, lavender, rose, peppermint, blood orange, blackberry mint, Irish breakfast and English breakfast and earl grey. I'm sure there are more lol. The restaurant called Maccaroni Grill has the best blackberry mint tea and blood orange tea.
Oh and if you're sick with a sore throat, honey lemon tea is really good for that. Echinacea is good tea for when you're sick. Also anything with licorice in it is good for sore throats. I have sleepy time teas as well. Some is just regular, but I also have some sleepy time throat tea and sleepy time sinus soother. I also have mood mender tea and tension tamer tea, those two are really good for us ladies.
-
Now I'm confused, I thought Earl Grey was a tea-tea and not a herbal tea - is that wrong?
-
English Teatime by Bigelow is my favorite.
-

No, you're right. I think the OP meant flavored tea, not herbal tea since regular teas like black and green aren't listed.
-
My favourite is a pavlova flavoured tea!
-
Peppermint and licorice. Earl Grey is fine too.
-
I love tea, but I'm very boring and mostly just like unflavored varieties of black or green. The only 3 flavors I like are Earl Grey (favorite, actually), Jasmine, and Peach, surprisingly, although I never buy it. Yerba Mate is fine too, but it's not anything special to me.
-
Southern sweet iced tea is the only kind I like :lol:
-
I picked Earl Grey, lavender and vanilla but I like sencha tea too. Mango and lemon are interesting flavors as well. Cherry isn't bad either. I need to buy more tea!
-
Most of the time I just drink unflavored, normal teas, however I do love raspberry and peach. Wish we could afford them more often.
As for third, I picked chocolate. I never tried it or even heard about it before, but I'd absolutely love to. Anything with chocolate can't possibly be bad. :D
-
Oh wow, how to pick? I LOVE tea. I love rose, Earl Grey, but I also love chocolate and chai teas! I also really love Twinings Blackcurrant tea, though that's a black tea.
-
Orange, vanilla and caramel. Oh yes!
-
Some of those are not herbal teas. LOL Well, if you want to get technical, ALL tea is herbal, because tea is a plant/herb, so there is no need to even use the word 'herbal.' :biggrin: Heh heh. However, just to be cranky, the term 'herbal' is applied to non-black teas, so technically many of those like Earl Grey and Chai do not fit.
But I'm just being silly. Don't take me seriously, please. LOL :blush: :P
-
:lol:Long Island Iced :P.
I wish I liked tea. I have tried it and coffee numerous times and just can't stand them. Just taste like watered down plant water. I almost liked an orange tea by Celestial Seasonings from a Keurig at the spa I go to but I just liked the smell -_- I know they're supposed to be good for you and the names sound wonderful but, alas, no dice.
-
Other for me, because my favorite is Sleepytime. No matter how awful my day was, a cup before bed gives me 15 minutes of peace.
-
Cranberry! :D I also like regular English blend. I like tea, but I'm not one of those people who see it as an elite business and need to have every flavour in the world in some special elite box. XD
-
Speaking of tea, has anyone ever had a green tea bath!? I took my first one yesterday, a lady at the spa told me it is a popular thing in Asia to do! I made my own at home though, they didn't have a green tea bath at the spa! xD I went to dollar tree and got 100 tea bags for $1 and used a huge handful of bags to make a HOT water tea bath! For fun I added in lavender and jojoba oil! Omg it felt amazing that i fell asleep a little. My skin feels great and I feel refreshed to the core! :3
-
I enjoy hot black tea and oolong. I like my tea to taste earthy. Nothing sweet, fruity, or flowery for me!

I've never heard of this before but it sounds amazing! <3

I just recently tried the salted caramel tea from David's Tea and I am in LOVE! It's so tasty. I want to go back, and when I do my friend whose name is David wants me to get him an extra to go cup for him to put pencils in :lol:
-
I'm a pumpkin spice girl. :coffee:
-
I'm a peppermint kind of girl, though I do have a serious weakness for mulling spice tea. I'm also a fan of spiced teas in general (apple, pumpkin, and orange being top favorites)
